I am reading Day Bang by Roosh V and something he brought up was to ask "elderly people" questions. This means to talk about stuff like where she got her computer, what pen she uses, etc.

Mystery also had a similar point. Mystery says not to ask for her name because that is a personal detail and she doesn't want to give that to a stranger.

Two popular pickup artists saying the same thing: avoid intruding questions. This is why I never ask for her name, I wait until she gives it to me. And if she doesn't that's a sign to me she needs more time to open up.

It is hard to not veer into personal territory. But it is critical in order to see if she will be receptive or not.

So the next time you are in a conversation with a woman, be sure to talk about details that are currently present to you. Then segway into deeper conversation.
